Dr. Randy Gauci introduced the biology topic of “Increasing Numbers,” focusing on reproduction, emphasizing its importance in preventing extinction and maintaining species survival. The lesson covered the two types of reproduction: asexual, where offspring are clones of the parent and the process is rapid, as in bacteria, and sexual, which involves two parents and results in genetic variation due to the combination of genetic material from both. Students were encouraged to review a summary table provided by Dr. Gauci highlighting the differences between asexual and sexual reproduction.
